    This is an excellent video. It validates what I discovered and you did a much better job of describing it than I would have. Thank you.

    Chris, once again, thank you for helping to clear things up a bit for me. I've always struggled with the concept. But now, I think I have a handle on it.

    Thanks as always! Realizing more and more since the starting days that good sound choices, properly arranged, with intentional volume placement is super important to the entire song. Trying to fix the volumes with EQ was a giant and very common mistake I would make, and since I stopped trying to boost with EQ and only take away with it, my mixes are becoming so much closer to the intentions I have for them! They also have been sounding far better in the car! That’s when I knew I was moving in the right direction

    good breakdown. it does sound like a valuable tool to train you to mix with your ears and not be swayed by the post-fader levels. although prefader monitoring won't magically make your mix better, i can definitely see it help develop certain skills. although, I don't think i've really had an issue with post-fader levels influencing my decisions the way that a visual rta on an eq can. but definitely an interesting feature. thanks for the breakdown.

    It seems like it would be pretty obvious as to what pre-fader metering is. But you did a great explanation of how it works in Logic Pro.

    I love it because sometimes you mix, set the fader/automation and later add more plugins. And won’t realizing you’re hot on the track unless you bypass automation and briefly zero out the fader to unity and that can make it super loud, which meant you have to turn the stereo out or interface down.
    Pre fader metering can quickly show you on all tracks at the click of a button without having to do any of the above to check. Very cool!

    I just wish you can do post-fader on Logic on individual tracks kinda like the Master Fader bus on PT

    Thank you for this video, very helpful. I’m new to mixing process in Logic Pro, and I’ve watched your other video regarding the gain staging process, which recommends a -18db level for all tracks, does this mean I should adjust the pre-fader metering level to -18db every time before I add a plug in to the channel, so the input to the new plug in will not experience distortion? Hope my question makes sense, thank you in advance!!

    Best way to gain stage.

  • @jojofogarty
    @jojofogarty Год назад

    I've been using pre-fader metering to set pre-amp gain to get around -18dbfs in logic. Is this a good way to use the function, or should I rely on the audio interface meters instead? Further, say I load a guitar preset in logic before setting gain: does this affect track levels when pre-fader metering is switched on?

    Hello there!
    But, If I want to set the level before both pre-fader and pre-plugins processing, what can I do?

  • @geraldrussell9154
    @geraldrussell9154 Год назад

    I bought Expand 2 and Native Instrument's Komplete 4 but there are no sounds in Komplete 4 and only one preset in Expand 2. What is wrong? I am a blind producer using Logic Pro.
